:00:00. > :00:00.Welcome to Wales Today. Our headlines tonight:

:00:00. > :00:09.The little girl turned away by the surgery who later died

:00:10. > :00:13.Tonight, questions around the disciplinary

:00:14. > :00:18.She was literally four minutes late because she checked her phone

:00:19. > :00:39.The man who murdered his ex-girlfriend and her new partner

:00:40. > :00:41.searched the web to learn how to do it.

:00:42. > :00:44.She was studying in Bangor before being locked

:00:45. > :00:49.Now the University urges the Home Office to intervene.

:00:50. > :00:53.Why the cranes might stop the diggers.

:00:54. > :00:57.The latest obstacle for the planned M4 relief road.

:00:58. > :01:06.In tonight's sport: After Scotland, Jonathan Davies is here.

:01:07. > :01:14.Wales fall in the world rankings, so what needs to change?

:01:15. > :01:18.Calls have been made for the General Medical Council

:01:19. > :01:22.to publish its findings about a GP who refused to see a young girl

:01:23. > :01:26.from Newport because she was late for an emergency appointment.

:01:27. > :01:29.Five year-old Ellie-May Clark died later the same evening

:01:30. > :01:35.Dr Joanna Rowe was been given a warning by the GMC and has now

:01:36. > :01:50.She was just perfect. That's how Brandy Clarke from Newport remembers

:01:51. > :01:58.her granddaughter. Five-year-old Ellie-May Clark. We just take each

:01:59. > :02:02.day as it comes and just try and get through as best you can. A funny

:02:03. > :02:11.little girl, bright. Very intelligent. Just so funny and

:02:12. > :02:16.loving. Ellie-May Clark had a history of severe asthma. Ending up

:02:17. > :02:22.in a high dependency unit five times before receiving help from her local

:02:23. > :02:27.surgery a further five times in the six months before her death. On the

:02:28. > :02:31.26th of January 2015, short of breath, she came home from school

:02:32. > :02:38.early. Their mother rang this surgery to book an appointment. Due

:02:39. > :02:42.at 5pm, Ellie-May Clark's mother said she arrived at eight minutes

:02:43. > :02:47.passed, although the receptionist said it was closer to 18 minutes

:02:48. > :02:50.passed. The doctor refused to see Ellie-May Clark because she was late

:02:51. > :02:55.and said she could come back the following morning. Later that night,

:02:56. > :02:59.while she was in bed, her parents discovered she was having a seizure

:03:00. > :03:04.and wasn't breathing. She died that night after doctors at the Royal

:03:05. > :03:07.Gwent Hospital were unable to resuscitate her. An internal

:03:08. > :03:16.investigation by the Aneurin Bevan Health Board found that doctors at

:03:17. > :03:18.this surgery had been alerted to the risk she faced of having an episode

:03:19. > :03:21.of severe life-threatening asthma. It also adds that while some doctors

:03:22. > :03:25.turned no one away, Doctor Rowe was most likely to turn patients away

:03:26. > :03:30.who turned up late and the report also said there was a consensus

:03:31. > :03:34.among reception staff that doctor Rowe was an approachable and

:03:35. > :03:38.volatile, although she denied that. The GP's case was passed to the

:03:39. > :03:43.disciplinary panel. Although Doctor Rowe has been issued with a

:03:44. > :03:47.five-year warning, the General medical Council dealt with her

:03:48. > :03:52.hearing behind closed doors. Ellie-May Clark's family received a

:03:53. > :03:56.copy of the report but nothing from the GMC. They have apologised but

:03:57. > :04:04.some are calling for greater transparency. If a warning is given

:04:05. > :04:08.and there is no explanation, the relatives of that patient who has

:04:09. > :04:16.been heard have no idea on what basis the decision by the GMC was

:04:17. > :04:20.made. The GMC may know but I would say, argue, as many members of the

:04:21. > :04:26.public would do, that that is no longer sufficient. Doctor Joanne

:04:27. > :04:30.Rowe was suspended on full pay for six months but continues to practice

:04:31. > :04:37.at this surgery in the Splott area of Cardiff. She has declined to

:04:38. > :04:44.comment on Ellie-May Clark's case. If she said sorry that at least

:04:45. > :04:46.would be something. It would have been something.

:04:47. > :04:49.Brandi Clark ending that report by James Williams.

:04:50. > :04:53.A man once described as a gentle giant murdered his former-girlfriend

:04:54. > :04:56.and her new boyfriend in a revenge attack, Cardiff Crown

:04:57. > :05:00.Zoe Morgan and Lee Simmons were stabbed outside Matalan

:05:01. > :05:06.Andrew Saunders was said to have searched the internet to learn how

:05:07. > :05:09.to kill in the days leading up to the murders.

:05:10. > :05:15.In Zoe Morgan it was said Lee Simmons had found love.

:05:16. > :05:19.They worked together in Matalan and were waiting outside the city

:05:20. > :05:23.centre store in Queen Street when they were attacked.

:05:24. > :05:26.Andrew Saunders was Zoe's previous boyfriend.

:05:27. > :05:29.The court heard how, in the days leading up to the murders,

:05:30. > :05:32.he had been stalking Zoe, threatening her.

:05:33. > :05:36.Witnesses described how he had first attacked Lee,

:05:37. > :05:39.ignoring his pleas for help, and when Zoe failed to stop him

:05:40. > :05:42.and ran away he had caught her and with a second knife

:05:43. > :05:46.he stabbed her too, before casually walking away.

:05:47. > :05:49.Investigations revealed he'd been watching YouTube videos

:05:50. > :05:54.about revenge and Googling methods of killing.

:05:55. > :05:57.In mitigation, his lawyer said his school teachers had

:05:58. > :06:01.described him as a gentle giant, a young man with outstanding grades

:06:02. > :06:06.He'd won a scholarship to play American football

:06:07. > :06:10.at University in Canada, but the death of his grandfather

:06:11. > :06:13.and the break up with Zoe had left him in emotional

:06:14. > :06:19.After the murders, he was diagnosed with adjustment disorder .

:06:20. > :06:25.His lawyer said he was an adolescent who couldn't manage.

:06:26. > :06:29.In the weeks following their deaths, friends held vigils for Zoe and Lee.

:06:30. > :06:32.Today, statements were read out from the couple's families.

:06:33. > :06:35.Zoe's mother said their world has been turned upside down and they've

:06:36. > :06:38.padlocked her daughter's room so it remains as she left it.

:06:39. > :06:42.Lee's father said he cannot look at pictures of his son.

:06:43. > :06:46.Andrew Saunders is said to be genuinely remorseful and wishes

:06:47. > :06:54.Sentencing is expected to take place tomorrow.

:06:55. > :06:58.A trial scheme where targets for Welsh ambulance response times

:06:59. > :07:00.were dropped for all but the most life-threatening calls

:07:01. > :07:05.The Welsh Government says the target has been met every month

:07:06. > :07:08.since it was introduced, but the Conservatives claim

:07:09. > :07:11.the system does not treat all suspected heart attack

:07:12. > :07:18.Nearly ?14 million of improvements have been approved for the accident

:07:19. > :07:21.and emergency department at Ysbyty Gwynedd in Bangor.

:07:22. > :07:25.The redevelopment will include extra triage and resuscitation areas

:07:26. > :07:33.Paediatrics facilities and waiting rooms will also be upgraded.

:07:34. > :07:36.Tributes have been paid to Elli Norkett, the Welsh rugby

:07:37. > :07:39.international killed in a car crash on Saturday.

:07:40. > :07:42.The 20-year-old from Llandarcy sustained fatal injuries

:07:43. > :07:45.in a collision between Banwen and Glynneath.

:07:46. > :07:48.Elli was the youngest player at the 2014 Rugby World Cup.

:07:49. > :07:52.In a statement, her family said she was loving and caring.

:07:53. > :07:56.Her club, the Ospreys, said it's like losing a family member.

:07:57. > :08:00.As a key Ospreys women's player, international but also colleague

:08:01. > :08:03.to a number of staff, it was quite a big shock.

:08:04. > :08:07.I don't think it was until late in the evening when the story

:08:08. > :08:10.was put out nationally and then the response that we had

:08:11. > :08:13.on Facebook and Twitter that it really sunk in.

:08:14. > :08:17.It's a sad loss and I'm sure the family are feeling that.

:08:18. > :08:23.The House of Commons has been told that the case of a Bangor University

:08:24. > :08:27.student who faces deportation is serious, urgent and pressing.

:08:28. > :08:30.Shiromini Satkunarajah is due to be flown to Sri Lanka tomorrow,

:08:31. > :08:33.three months before she completes her degree.

:08:34. > :08:36.Her lawyers are asking for a last minute review of her case.

:08:37. > :08:39.Roger Pinney is at Bangor University now.

:08:40. > :08:52.This young woman, Shiromini Satkunarajah, has been in the UK for

:08:53. > :08:58.eight years. She initially came here with her parents. Their father was

:08:59. > :09:02.on a student Visa, although there is a suggestion that they may have been

:09:03. > :09:06.escaping from conflict in their native Sri Lanka as well. Her father

:09:07. > :09:12.has since died and she was allowed to stay in the UK to complete her

:09:13. > :09:16.school studies. She then won a place at Bangor University and was allowed

:09:17. > :09:20.to study for her degree here while her appeals to stay in the UK were

:09:21. > :09:28.being processed. That's where we've got to now. She was told last week

:09:29. > :09:35.that those appeals had failed. She was detained and taken to a

:09:36. > :09:38.detention centre and now she and her mother are awaiting deportation and

:09:39. > :09:44.that could happen as soon as tomorrow. But she hasn't given up?

:09:45. > :09:50.She hasn't and she has a great deal of support. She is being backed by

:09:51. > :09:53.the... The National Union of Students, the Bishop of anger has

:09:54. > :09:59.described it as a travesty if she was deported now, Bangor University

:10:00. > :10:03.says she is an exceptional student and she should be allowed to

:10:04. > :10:10.continue reading her degree. In the House of Commons today the case was

:10:11. > :10:14.raised by Hywel Williams. And lawyers are working on this case.

:10:15. > :10:19.They are hoping to file an emergency application again for her to stay

:10:20. > :10:23.and, in the meantime, the lawyers say the two women should be released

:10:24. > :10:28.from detention. This is all being dealt with by the Home Office. The

:10:29. > :10:33.Home Office tell us they won't discuss individual cases but they do

:10:34. > :10:38.add that the UK has a proud history of granting asylum to those who

:10:39. > :10:43.genuinely need it. And the Home Office says every case is carefully

:10:44. > :10:47.considered on its individual merits. That's where we stand. She could

:10:48. > :10:48.face deportation tomorrow but her lawyers are still seeking a further

:10:49. > :10:51.appeal. Children living in the most deprived

:10:52. > :10:54.areas of Wales are 16 times more likely to be taken into care

:10:55. > :10:56.than those living in the most affluent areas

:10:57. > :10:59.and even more likely to be Those are the findings of academics

:11:00. > :11:04.at Cardiff University. They describe harm to children

:11:05. > :11:07.as one of the most toxic Michael Alli was taken into care

:11:08. > :11:15.at the age of seven and brought up by foster families

:11:16. > :11:18.in one of Cardiff's more in one of the capital's

:11:19. > :11:25.more affluent areas. It was only then he became

:11:26. > :11:27.aware of the contrast. I think it was a bit

:11:28. > :11:30.of a culture clash for me, when I would say I was from Ely

:11:31. > :11:35.and they would say, you're a chav. You start questioning where you're

:11:36. > :11:38.from and why is it that and then when I was getting older

:11:39. > :11:42.I realised the streets in Llandaff are a lot nicer,

:11:43. > :11:45.the houses are a bit bigger. Michael bucked the trend and went

:11:46. > :11:48.on to university, where he examined the link between foster care

:11:49. > :11:51.and future offending. It is completely disproportionate

:11:52. > :11:55.and it has really opened my eyes and made me realise how lucky I am

:11:56. > :11:58.that I didn't go down that path and I have had a stable family

:11:59. > :12:01.and stable upbringing. The impact of poverty

:12:02. > :12:04.is far ranging. Successive governments in Wales have

:12:05. > :12:07.attempted to improve the health and education outcomes of children

:12:08. > :12:11.by trying to tackle the issue. But research by Cardiff University

:12:12. > :12:15.as part of a much wider UK study suggests child welfare

:12:16. > :12:19.is a far greater concern. With more than 5,000 children in

:12:20. > :12:22.care and nearly 3,000 on the child protection register,

:12:23. > :12:27.you are 16 times more likely to be in care if you live in the most

:12:28. > :12:30.deprived areas of Wales And 24 times more likely to be

:12:31. > :12:36.on the child protection register. There's a lot of policy attention

:12:37. > :12:39.to reducing health inequalities which is absolutely

:12:40. > :12:44.right and appropriate. The adult outcomes though of harm

:12:45. > :12:49.to children are much more serious than the problems caused

:12:50. > :12:52.in adulthood by educational underachievement or having slightly

:12:53. > :12:55.worse health so I would say that child welfare inequalities

:12:56. > :12:58.need to be much more The risk of not looking at the two

:12:59. > :13:03.is that we are simply The research in no way

:13:04. > :13:10.suggests all children The body representing councils

:13:11. > :13:16.in Wales say with reducing resources and increasing demands,

:13:17. > :13:18.services are under immense pressure but they are working

:13:19. > :13:20.with the Welsh Government to support those in the most

:13:21. > :13:23.deprived communities in Wales. Much more to come before seven

:13:24. > :13:31.o'clock: Jonathan Davies is here to look

:13:32. > :13:36.ahead to how Wales turns And the Cardiff graduate who picked

:13:37. > :13:44.up her Oscar for one It's been debated for

:13:45. > :13:52.the best part of 30 years. Tomorrow a five month public inquiry

:13:53. > :13:55.begins into whether the M4 relief road around Newport should get

:13:56. > :13:58.the go ahead. In a moment, why cranes -

:13:59. > :14:02.the feathered variety - might stop the diggers

:14:03. > :14:05.in their tracks. First, Jordan Davies

:14:06. > :14:08.on the arguments for and against one of the largest civil engineering

:14:09. > :14:12.projects in south Wales. It's a saga that's had more twists

:14:13. > :14:17.and turns than a TV soap opera. Needed, some say, to

:14:18. > :14:24.avoid scenes like this. Bumper-to-bumper for hours

:14:25. > :14:29.on the M4 around Newport. It has a natural bottleneck,

:14:30. > :14:32.the Brynglas Tunnel, The M4 either side was

:14:33. > :14:37.designed as a bypass. Officials recognise this stretch

:14:38. > :14:40.of road carries more traffic A relief road around Newport

:14:41. > :14:45.was first mentioned in the '90s. Fast forward to 2014

:14:46. > :14:50.and the Welsh Government announced its preferred route,

:14:51. > :14:54.the so-called black route. These are the Welsh Government

:14:55. > :14:59.plans, from Castleton to Magor. But this road isn't

:15:00. > :15:03.without controversy. Newport docks isn't just a place

:15:04. > :15:07.where things float, they also fly. The owners say it will be difficult

:15:08. > :15:11.for tall ships to access one of their docks because of the relief

:15:12. > :15:16.road passing overhead. And environmental and major groups

:15:17. > :15:19.are worried the road will devastate places

:15:20. > :15:23.like this, the Gwent Levels. Some opposition parties

:15:24. > :15:26.are concerned about the potential ?1.1 billion price tag

:15:27. > :15:30.but the Welsh Government, several business groups

:15:31. > :15:33.and countless commuters believe it's vital,

:15:34. > :15:36.saying the road as it is acts as a natural barrier

:15:37. > :15:40.to economic growth. So this all leads us

:15:41. > :15:44.to an inquiry in Newport, where the fate of the M4 relief road

:15:45. > :15:47.will be decided. Will this be the final

:15:48. > :15:51.scene in this drama? The hopes of motorists,

:15:52. > :15:54.environmentalists and the public purse

:15:55. > :15:58.are all resting on the ending. Well, it's emerged

:15:59. > :16:01.that the preferred route for the new motorway could cut

:16:02. > :16:05.through the first nesting site in Wales for common

:16:06. > :16:08.cranes in over 400 years. Here's our environment

:16:09. > :16:14.correspondent, Steffan Messenger. Wiped out by hunting

:16:15. > :16:20.and loss of habitat, this secretive bird hadn't been seen

:16:21. > :16:24.in Wales since the Tudor age The story starts on the Somerset

:16:25. > :16:31.Levels where, since 2010, a group of wildlife charities have

:16:32. > :16:36.been trying to reintroduce them. 93 cranes have been hand-reared

:16:37. > :16:44.and released on this site and over the course of the last six years,

:16:45. > :16:49.they have started to spread out. They have nested successfully

:16:50. > :16:52.on the Gwent Levels last year and produced their first chick

:16:53. > :16:56.in Wales for over 400 years, If you've got cranes

:16:57. > :17:00.back in the landscape, But could this crane

:17:01. > :17:06.comeback be cut short? The new nesting site is on land

:17:07. > :17:09.the Welsh Government wants to concrete over for its ?1 billion

:17:10. > :17:14.upgrade to the M4. The crane is just one of a number

:17:15. > :17:18.of iconic species that environmentalists claim could be

:17:19. > :17:22.badly hit by the government's That's because their preferred route

:17:23. > :17:29.cuts across some unique landscape. The ancient marshes

:17:30. > :17:33.of the Gwent Levels. The black route crosses in areas set

:17:34. > :17:37.aside for nature conservation. Five sites of special

:17:38. > :17:40.scientific interest. At Magor marsh nature reserves,

:17:41. > :17:44.Gwent Wildlife Trust has received a compulsory purchase order

:17:45. > :17:48.for part of its land. The charity says it's gearing up

:17:49. > :17:51.for the David versus Goliath fight It's going to affect hundreds

:17:52. > :17:56.of hectares of wetland habitat. Thousands of metres of ditches

:17:57. > :17:59.will be concreted over. It should never have come

:18:00. > :18:02.to a public inquiry. The designations are there

:18:03. > :18:05.and it will be completely The common crane's fate may not stop

:18:06. > :18:11.the motorway from being built but it's one example of mounting

:18:12. > :18:15.environmental concerns. Even Wales' Future

:18:16. > :18:18.Generations Commissioner, one of the government's

:18:19. > :18:21.own advisers, Mitigation measures to protect

:18:22. > :18:27.wildlife are being promised and ministers say the public inquiry

:18:28. > :18:31.will be a chance to properly scrutinise them before a final

:18:32. > :18:37.decision on the M4's future is made. Rugby and football -

:18:38. > :18:42.Tomos has tonight's sport. Any chance of winning

:18:43. > :18:45.the Six Nations title evaporated in Murrayfield and tonight Wales

:18:46. > :18:48.have dropped to seventh in the world rankings ahead

:18:49. > :18:52.of May's World Cup draw. Rob Howley's men failed

:18:53. > :18:54.to score a single point in the second half -

:18:55. > :18:57.a first defeat against In a moment we'll hear

:18:58. > :19:03.from Jonathan Davies. First, if you can stomach it,

:19:04. > :19:07.the key moments from the game. Free kick quickly

:19:08. > :19:10.taken by Rhys Webb. Scott Williams long

:19:11. > :19:12.to Leigh Halfpenny. Liam Williams, the first

:19:13. > :19:18.try of the game. Scotland over the ball again,

:19:19. > :19:59.win yet another penalty. One boot into touch

:20:00. > :20:03.and the job is done. Let's start with Dan Biggar

:20:04. > :20:07.seemingly overruling his captain, turning down an opportunity to kick

:20:08. > :20:21.for three points. Very odd. Shambolic really because I

:20:22. > :20:27.don't think the referee was sure what was going on. That position at

:20:28. > :20:30.16-13, I felt they had to go for goal, especially when they weren't

:20:31. > :20:34.turning the pressure into points and they haven't done that over the last

:20:35. > :20:37.few games. So surprising they went for touch and got penalised at the

:20:38. > :20:42.next line-out. Would you bring in new players? I would like to know

:20:43. > :20:46.first what they are trying to do attacking wise because they don't

:20:47. > :20:50.seem to create any thing to ask questions of the opposition defence.

:20:51. > :20:56.They tried to barge over and we are way behind on the stats with tries

:20:57. > :21:01.scored in opposition 22. If they need to freshen it up, Liam Williams

:21:02. > :21:06.at fullback. Do you put Sam Davies in? George North has been very

:21:07. > :21:10.quiet. But I would like to know what they are trying to do offensively

:21:11. > :21:16.with Alex King and Robert Howley. It doesn't seem that they are creating

:21:17. > :21:21.enough opportunities to score tries. And after that defeat, they have

:21:22. > :21:25.dropped down to seventh in the world rankings. If they drop out of the

:21:26. > :21:30.top eight, it will be a tough World Cup draw. You don't want to be in

:21:31. > :21:34.the group of death. Last time we did well against England so we got

:21:35. > :21:38.through and it was exciting but for me Wales should be in the top eight.

:21:39. > :21:43.If they lose the next two games they will be nice and they could be in

:21:44. > :21:49.the group of death again. I learned a week on Friday. They are going for

:21:50. > :21:54.the title. How do we beat them? Unless we score more tries, we won't

:21:55. > :21:58.beat them. If we can't score tries, we should put points on the board.

:21:59. > :22:06.We are capable of beating them if we attack well but that's the big? Now.

:22:07. > :22:07.-- the big question now. But two really tough games to finish the

:22:08. > :22:11.tournament. Thank you very much. Football, and Gareth Bale,

:22:12. > :22:13.who hobbled-off in Real Madrid's win over Villareal last night,

:22:14. > :22:15.suffered just a knock and should be fine to feature

:22:16. > :22:18.against Las Palmas on Wednesday. Bale scored in his first start

:22:19. > :22:22.for three months but was replaced towards the end after he appeared

:22:23. > :22:26.to land awkwardly on his ankle. Wales face the Republic of Ireland

:22:27. > :22:31.in Dublin next month. Amid the glitz, glamour

:22:32. > :22:41.and confusion of this year's Oscars, there was a win for a graduate

:22:42. > :22:45.of Cardiff University. Producer Joanna Natasegara was part

:22:46. > :22:49.of the team behind the Oscar The White Helmets tells

:22:50. > :22:54.the story of rescue workers It's not the moment this year's

:22:55. > :23:06.Oscar ceremony will be remembered for

:23:07. > :23:09.but for Joanna Natasegara, in telling the story

:23:10. > :23:15.of the White Helmets. The first responder rescue workers

:23:16. > :23:19.are estimated to have helped save the lives

:23:20. > :23:21.of tens of thousands of civilians The short documentary shows

:23:22. > :23:27.them working in the most difficult including rescuing this

:23:28. > :23:33.baby alive from rubble. Speaking after the ceremony, Joanna,

:23:34. > :23:37.a Cardiff University graduate, said she had mixed emotions

:23:38. > :23:40.following her win. We wish we'd never had to make this

:23:41. > :23:46.film, we wish we didn't have to be here tonight with this award,

:23:47. > :23:50.but we do and so we are pleased at least they get

:23:51. > :23:53.the recognition they deserve. Watching her daughter's moment

:23:54. > :23:56.in the limelight during She heads charity Safer Wales

:23:57. > :24:02.based in Cardiff, for whom Joanna made a film following a stint

:24:03. > :24:06.working for the organisation. To make a great documentary,

:24:07. > :24:09.you talk about the facts, you talk about truth,

:24:10. > :24:12.you give a voice to people who haven't had a chance

:24:13. > :24:15.to have that voice before, but who do you put that voice

:24:16. > :24:17.in front of? I think that's what she really

:24:18. > :24:20.finds exciting and that's what I find really

:24:21. > :24:26.impressive about her work. And another person impressed

:24:27. > :24:30.with her work is George Clooney. The Hollywood star is reported to be

:24:31. > :24:33.developing a drama based on the White Helmets,

:24:34. > :24:36.meaning this is one story that could see more Oscar success

:24:37. > :24:43.in the future. The prize for best weather picture

:24:44. > :24:56.goes tonight to Sue Charles. Sadly, it is more like the worst

:24:57. > :25:00.because Storm Doris brought strong winds over the last few days. Not as

:25:01. > :25:06.windy but still very blustery over the next few days with wintry

:25:07. > :25:13.showers and dry spells and feeling colder. Tonight, showers continue.

:25:14. > :25:16.Any snow, mainly over higher ground, but colder than recent nights. These

:25:17. > :25:20.temperatures in towns and cities around freezing but it will be even

:25:21. > :25:25.colder in the countryside and the Met office has a warning out for the

:25:26. > :25:29.risk of ice on untreated surfaces. The pressure chart shows some dry

:25:30. > :25:32.spells for a time tomorrow but another front pushing in from the

:25:33. > :25:37.north-west through the day. Tomorrow it is a cold start with a frost and

:25:38. > :25:41.eyes risk. Some brighter spells but then showers pushing in from the

:25:42. > :25:45.north-west, merging into longer spells of rain and becoming wintry

:25:46. > :25:50.over higher ground with sleet and snow mixed in. Brighter spells in

:25:51. > :25:54.between, especially further south, and those showers rattling through

:25:55. > :26:00.on brisk winds. These will reach gale force along the coast. But the

:26:01. > :26:07.winter chill making it feel even colder than that. Tomorrow night the

:26:08. > :26:10.front starts to clear through. Fewer wintry showers slowly easing

:26:11. > :26:18.overnight, turning Dreier, blustery but still quite close -- cold. The

:26:19. > :26:22.chart shows a window of dry weather for a time on Wednesday but this

:26:23. > :26:27.front pushing up from the south-west later in the day so, on Wednesday, a

:26:28. > :26:31.cold, bright start for many but going downhill. The rain pushes up

:26:32. > :26:37.from the south-west by the afternoon and it will stay quite chilly at

:26:38. > :26:41.7-9 C. It will stay unsettled and often very windy through the rest of

:26:42. > :26:47.the week with showers and a few sunny spells. Frost patch is

:26:48. > :26:50.possible by night. Thursday is a drier and brighter day and then it

:26:51. > :26:54.is looking milder but changeable for the end of the week. But milder by

:26:55. > :27:01.the end of the week for the next couple of days. Cold enough for snow

:27:02. > :27:05.for some of us. But today, in Blaenau Ffestiniog, this picture was

:27:06. > :27:10.taken by our weather watcher. If you have any photos to take the weather

:27:11. > :27:11.story, you can sign up and become a weather watcher and keep to date up

:27:12. > :27:15.online. Calls have been made

:27:16. > :27:24.for the General Medical Council to publish its findings about a GP

:27:25. > :27:27.who refused to see a young girl from Newport because she was late

:27:28. > :27:29.for an emergency appointment. Five year-old Ellie-May Clark died

:27:30. > :27:31.later the same evening I'll have an update

:27:32. > :27:39.for you here at 8pm and again From all of us on the

:27:40. > :27:43.programme, good evening.
